"Swiperboy" has a message for all of you

Actually, I'm warming up to the idea of UT athletes or coaches who have performed embarrassingly making music. We now need a Jon Crompton country song and a Todd Raleigh classic rock diddy.

Even Lofton didn't do that.

And, if the raps were inappropriate in nature, someone would have pulled the plug.

That's another thing. All of his raps are completely clean. He doesn't offend anyone in them. Also, he talks about UT quite a bit in his songs, so fans shouldn't have a problem with his music.

Tyler Smith's twitter page has updates of him playing video games a lot of the time. I guess we should all get on him about that too.

I don't get it. You got something against rapping? There's nothing wrong with him making music.

Rapping is the DEVIL!

He should resort to breaking and entering, trespassing, and beating women! Oh wait.....NO...that is for Coach Cal's players. Sorry for the confusion.

I wish the Mods could somehow prevent every single thread in the Basketball forum turning into a Bruce-Bashing thread. Its really getting old.

Sometimes, I forget how much I appreciate the ignore function. Today is not one of those days.

The thing is though, is that he's already proven he's a great player. What has Woolridge proven?

Even if its not bad or time consuming or anything, it's all about perception.

But completely clean? He's got a song on youtube called "Ignorant ****" and he's dropped the N word in a couple songs IIRC

you can ALWAYS get better. I don't care how good T. Smith was last year, he's still got a lot to work on.

I liked Baller Vol. And I dont care that much for rap style music. May just be the homer in me. But he does have some talent. Does anyone know his major is or what his studies are? Just curious as to what he has planned for the future if not BB or music.

1. Swiperboy is the stupidest rap name of all time.
2. The fact Pearl hasn't long since pulled the plug on this idiocy is Exhibit 1 as to why this program is on the bullet train to oblivion.

I don't know Soulja Boy Tell Em is a pretty horrible name.

His Cant Stop Us rap is pretty good. I have no problem with him writing and rapping in between classes and basketball.

Swiperboy...hmmm...was that taken from Dora the Explorer?

Don't know anything about Dora, but did he really jack his name from a kids show? LOL

I don't mind him doing it either, I mean I actually like a couple songs, but I can see both sides argument pretty much.

I think Swiperboy refers to "swiping" girls up. As in all the girls want him and he can get all the girls he wants.

When he becomes a remotely competent SEC player, he can spend all the time he wants making awful raps. Until then, it might be nice for him to work on the activity that has him on scholarship. Just a thought.

It could be worse, he could be someone making awful posts on a messageboard with all of his free time.

Or it may just be that it's the end of July and we have nothing better to worry about. Hating on the swiper will likely cease once summer practices kick in and we have something worth talking about.

The recent rap that covered all UT Sports was good enough for the school to use as an anthem at games, IMO. They could at least play it during warm-up shootarounds before games at TBA.

Yeah, that would be tremendous. I'm sure fans who otherwise would have stayed home will flock to TBA for the dulcid tones of Swiperboy.

I think Hat's onto something here, and was just trying to accentuate his point.

Any player who attends college on an athletic scholarship and who it is believed would benefit from extra practice time in order to improve his play to satisfaction of an anonymous poster on a message board should do that, instead of writing rap songs.

So, we've established the fact that accepting a scholarship affords others the right to best determine what you do with your free time.

Sort of like indentured servitude, or its distant cousin, slavery.

I'm just trying to establish that Hat is a proponent of slavery. Likely, when they get "uppity", he's apt to chide their poor and/or inconsistent effort. Or lash them. Six in one hand...

Geez. Lighten up, let the man have his opinions. And his freedoms.

As opposed to scholarship athletes, who should have none.

Zzzzz.

If he didn't suck this wouldn't be an issue.

I do understand he has plenty of free time. I know guys who work out 3-4 hours a day during the summer, but yet they still have plenty of free time. Its not an issue.
